vitest test coverage does not fail when threshold is not met

Question

i want my test coverage to fail if the thresholds are not met

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [vue()],
  test: {
    environment: "happy-dom",
    exclude: [...configDefaults.exclude, "**/tests/e2e/*"],
    coverage: {
      reporter: ['text', 'json', 'html'],
      lines: 80,
      functions: 80,
      branches: 80,
      statements: 80,
    }
  },

even though i get the error message, it still shows pass

If you are seeing this in 2024 and using [email protected] the previous solution won't work for you.thresholds should be an object instead.
See code below:

{
  test: {
    ...your other configurations
    coverage: {
      ...your other configurations
      thresholds: {
        lines: 80,
        functions: 80,
        branches: 80,
        statements: 80
      }
    }
  }
}

See documentation here: coverage.thresholds[glob-pattern]
